Google Pixel 11 Pro leaked in new finish You Should Know
We’re just over a week away from the official Pixel 11 launch, but the leaks just keep coming. The most recent is a close-up look at the Pixel 11 Pro in its new finish.
With a seeming lack of upgrades – well, it is 2026 – the Pixel 11 colours the phones will arrive in are possibly the most interesting thing about them. And Evan Blass has given us the best look yet at matte black Pro.
This will be good news for some people as the Pro models typically come with a glossy frame, but the Pixel 11 Pro bucks that trend. At least, it does for the black model which Google normally calls Obsidian, though it’s tipped to be called ‘Midnight Haze’ this year.
The official-looking image shows a detailed look at the powder-coated look of the frame, which is also matched by metal surrounding the camera bar. It’s very similar to the Oura Ring 5 in ‘Stealth’ and will also be available in the larger XL size.
The other colours – reportedly Light Fog, Pine and Dune – will all have shiny frames in silver, brass and gold tones respectively, if previous leaks are accurate.
Blass also includes a good look at the Dune colour with its bright pink/orange rear cover as well as other shots seemingly confirming various specs and features of the Pixel 11 Pro.
Primarily the Pixel Glow light, which could be called HiLight instead, seen in both multi-coloured and blue modes as well as off. The leak also suggests the following:
- Tensor G6 chipset
- Gemini Intelligence
- Increase to 120x for Pro Zoom
- Possible new mode for capturing video and photo together
- Possible improved Night Sight
All will be revealed on 12 August, though there’s little left for Google to say at this point, especially after the Pixel Tag leaked.
